	The T3 was discontinued a while ago.  They came out with the T5 
to replace it, which is definitely not as good.  The LifeDrive came 
later.

	Depends on what you're trying to do with it.  If all you want is 
calendar and note-taking, then 16MB is probably enough.  Heck, an 
m515 is more than enough.  In that case, it would be better to go 
back to the Palm III and IIIx, since they had more than enough memory 
for those functions, and with B&W screens got battery lifetimes 
measured in weeks, not hours.

	Built-in?  Not that I know of.
